Chapter 9
       �Why don�t we play some pool in the basement?� Howie suggested. Everyone nodded in agreement and headed down the steps. In the corner Alexia sat in a chair waiting for her turn, �cause Kevin had his turn still and was taking all the time he needed.
        AJ waltzed over to her and crouched next to her chair. �So, you wanna go see a movie tomorrow with me?� Alexia scratched her head in thought. �Hmm� Stay home all day doing nothing or go out with a really hot guy? Tough question.� She pondered jokingly. �I think I�ll go with staying home.� AJ�s mouth gaped open as she smile at him sweetly.
        �I�m only kidding you goober.� She laughed at his shocked expression. �Goober?� He asked in confusion. �You�ve got the weirdest words I�ve ever heard.� He shook his head. �Yeah, and you�ve got the weirdest hair styles I�ve ever seen, so we�re tied.� She replied happily. "Well, I happen to like your weird words." AJ said. �And I happen to like your weird hair styles too.� Alexia said as she got up to play, because Kevin had finally finished.
        She kept missing intentionally just so AJ would help her and when it was her turn again AJ got up and went behind her. "Do you need some help� Again?" He asked as she nodded her head with a sly smile.
        He got close to her as possible and took hold of her hands on the pool stick. He pointed to one of the balls and got ready to take a shot. As he did this she rubbed up against him at the same time and he missed the shot. �Wow, AJ actually missed.� Brian�s eyebrows shot up. Tamara who knew that Alexia was really good at pool laughed. AJ whispered in her ear, "that wasn�t fair! I�ll get you back sooner or later." All she could get out from laughing was, �I�m looking forward to it.�
        She turned back around and AJ pinched her butt. She yelped and everyone started to laugh. He smiled at Alexia and said, "told ya.�

The next morning�

        Everyone had slept over at AJ's that night and that morning AJ was up first. He watched Alexia sleep. But when she stirred he crawled back to his sleeping spot. Alexia smiled to herself with her eyes closed. She was awake the whole time AJ was watching her. And the fact that he was gave her butterflies.
        She pretended to wake up and walked to the kitchen, but as someone grabbed her foot she squealed. When she looked down, she found AJ�s million dollar smile that made her melt. AJ pulled her down to him and kissed her slowly. "Morning baby." AJ whispered. Alexia grinned at him and said, "morning to you too." She got up and pulled AJ up with her and went into the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat for breakfast.
        They couldn't find anything so they decided to go to McDonald's and get everyone something. When they got back everyone else was in the kitchen. When Alexia and AJ walked into the kitchen everyone saw the food and grabbed it from their hands. "Good morning to you too." AJ said sarcastically. Since AJ and Alexia ate on they way back they went into the living room.
        "Are we still going to go to the movies tonight?" AJ asked. "Yeah, but I have to go home to change first. So, what time are you picking me up?" Alexia asked with a smile. "How about 6:00 so we can eat first." AJ said. �Sure.� She replied. �Great, it�s a plan!� He said excitedly.
